jimb, I probably am too broad in the beam, but I liked the extra width on LH this trip. I forgot to give UA credit for the noise-cancelling earphones too.

I guess I was pretty impressed that even as they were advertising all the enhancements in LH business class I was still wondering why they'd bothered. The seats seemed bright, clean, firm and fresh, not tired or saggy.

I guess after UA business class to South America and LH US-Frankfurt, it pretty much is a draw, these days.
